A política nacional de desenvolvimento de pessoas na UFPel: um estudo com os Secretários Executivos sob a ótica da gestão por competências

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the implementation of the National People Development Policy (PNDP) at the Federal University of Pelotas, focusing on the position of Executive Secretary and using Skills Management as a parameter. The research was qualitative in nature and the participants were the seven Executive Secretaries working at the university and a member of the People Development Coordination (CDP), of the Dean of People Management (PROGEP). Based on a semi-structured interview guide applied to the subjects and the analysis of documents related to people management, namely Decree No. 9,991/2019, which brings the PNDP, the People Development Plan (PDP) 2023 of UFPel, Laws and Decrees regulating the executive secretariat area and relating to the public servant's career, in addition to the Institutional Development Plan (PDI) in force at the institution, it was possible to verify the applicability of the PNDP, focusing on individual competencies and those related to the position held by the interviewed. After analyzing and discussing the results, based on the answers provided by the research subjects, it was possible to conclude that, despite the National People Development Policy being an important means of managing and developing employees in Federal Higher Education Institutions, (IFES), in practice, individual competencies and those related to the position of Executive Secretary are not satisfactorily explored at UFPel. Furthermore, Management by Competences is not yet institutionalized as a tool for developing people, in order to also assist in the movement of university employees, especially Executive Secretaries. These are requested for assignments that, in most cases, do not do justice to the training and professional qualifications they have, making clear the discontent of five of the seven civil servants interviewed for this study. As an intervention proposal, this work suggested the development of a guide that serves to assist in the process of moving employees occupying the position of Executive Secretary, which can be adapted to other positions in the institution.
